Project Grant R25GM166785
- The National Institute of General Medical Sciences awarded the Regents of the University of Michigan $400,881 on February 26, 2026, under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) to uncover principles of tissue morphogenesis through data science and machine learning approaches. The research centers on modularity in tissue formation—the concept that cells rely on a finite set of reusable behaviors such as division, migration, and shape change to build diverse tissue...
- The National Institute of General Medical Sciences awarded $410,473 to the Regents of the University of Michigan on August 1, 2026, under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) to develop quantitative theory and computational models of collective cellular response to complex biophysical cues. The research encompasses two projects: investigation of swarming bacterial colonies' response to intestinal tissue cues in healthy and disease states, and analysis of...
- The National Institute of General Medical Sciences awarded the Regents of the University of Michigan $473,238 under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) on September 1, 2026, for development of CARTOSCOPE, an integrated cloud platform for processing, visualizing, and sharing micron-scale spatial omics data. The platform addresses advances in single-cell and spatial multi-omics technologies that enable molecular profiling of individual cells and spatially resolved...
- The National Institute of General Medical Sciences awarded the Regents of the University of Michigan $425,916 under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) on June 1, 2026. The award funds a five-year investigation into the mechanisms of lysosomal resilience, repair, and removal. Research will examine how cells sense acute changes in lysosomal membrane structure and coordinate restorative responses, including how local membrane remodeling and reinforcement by ESCRT...
- The National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) at the Department of Health and Human Services awarded $420,093 to the Regents of the University of Michigan on September 1, 2026, under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859). The award funds a five-year investigation into how cells self-organize to sculpt tissue interfaces and generate the characteristic curvatures that shape organ architecture and function. The research takes a systems-level approach to...
- The National Institute of General Medical Sciences awarded the Regents of the University of Michigan $426,539 on May 1, 2026, under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) to develop AI-driven robotic systems that plan, execute, and interpret automated experiments mapping bacterial pathogen phenotypes and quorum sensing pathways. The work focuses on context-specific cellular networks in streptococci, integrating metabolism and quorum sensing into a quantitative...
- The National Institute of General Medical Sciences awarded $565,993 to Regents of the University of Michigan on June 1, 2026, under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) to develop next-generation native ion mobility-mass spectrometry (NIM-MS) methods for characterizing biotherapeutics, including protein and nucleic acid therapeutics. The project focuses on creating rapid, droplet-based enzymatic chemistries and collision-induced unfolding (CIU) approaches to assess...
- Federal Project Grant Award Summary The University of Michigan received a $2.01 million Project Grant from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859), awarded September 1, 2025, with completion targeted for August 31, 2029. This four-year research initiative focuses on enzyme-inspired multimetallic cooperativity and the design of synthetic model systems that investigate how metal ion identity and pairing...
- The National Institute of General Medical Sciences awarded the University of Virginia $539,999 on August 1, 2026, through the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) to expand and operate the Biomedical Data Science Innovation Lab as a national training program for early-career faculty and senior postdoctoral fellows in biomedical data science. The award funds a year-long, immersive mentorship and research development program structured around virtual "microlab"...
- The National Institute of General Medical Sciences awarded the Regents of the University of Michigan $2.145 million on September 1, 2026, under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) to design and test de novo metalloenzymes that replicate the active sites and catalytic functions of natural metalloproteins. The award funds research into how metal coordination environments affect metal binding and catalysis within designed alpha-helical proteins and coiled-coil...
The National Institute of General Medical Sciences awarded the Regents of the University of Michigan $378,252 on September 3, 2026, under the Biomedical Research and Research Training program (CFDA 93.859) to develop virtual educational resources and training models in data visualization for biomedical researchers. The award funds creation of two complementary educational offerings. The first will generate resources enabling researchers to conduct constructive critiques of existing data visualizations and those designed by peers. The second will produce educational materials addressing the technical skill gaps that many researchers face in generating data visualizations. The resources target graduate students and postdoctoral fellows, with the objective of strengthening data visualization competencies across research career stages to improve the robustness, rigor, and reproducibility of biomedical research. Performance occurs at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The period of performance extends from the award date through June 30, 2031. The university receives the award through its Office of Research and Sponsored Projects Division.
